tcr-rider Posted February 12, 2022 Share This is my first CTCC and I got 2C. What are the chances for a sub-3 in that group? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your seeding is really starting to reflect your ability. I feel another pb is coming your way. ChrisF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be guys that create spreadsheets from the last few years showing how many sub 3s were done from what groups. If you really got time, search last year's thread, the question gets asked every year. Well done and good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bub Marley Posted February 12, 2022 Share Doesn’t seem like they used todays race which is disappointing. Will definitely query it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd have to go back to 2018 to find the last time someone from 2C broke 3 (though 12 did it that year) Year Number breaking 3 in 2C Fastest Link 2021 0 03:06:47 http://results.racetec.co.za/results_by_event.aspx?RID=2021&EN=Sun%2010%2F10%2F2021%202021%20Cape%20Town%20Cycle%20Tour%20%28109km%29&SG=2C 2020 0 03:05:55 http://results.racetec.co.za/results_by_event.aspx?RID=2020&EN=Sun%2008%2F03%2F2020%202020%20Cape%20Town%20Cycle%20Tour%20%28109km%20%2D%20109km%29&SG=2C 2019 0 03:18:14 http://results.racetec.co.za/results_by_event.aspx?RID=2019&EN=Sun%2010%2F03%2F2019%202019%20Cape%20Town%20Cycle%20Tour%20%28109km%29&SG=2C 2018 12 02:53:05 http://results.racetec.co.za/results_by_event.aspx?RID=2018&EN=Sun%2011%2F03%2F2018%202018%20Cape%20Town%20Cycle%20Tour%20%28109km%29&SG=2C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HenryS Posted February 12, 2022 Share Interesting thing I noticed on the start procedure; all start groups up until 2D will be timed gun to mat and from 3A onwards, it will be mat to mat. "For start groups up to the end of wave 2, each rider will receive an identical “bunch” start time. From group 3A onwards, each rider’s riding time will only start once they have crossed the actual timing mat marked by the Garmin Squad." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My advice… don’t worry about a sub 3, make sure you are fit enough to keep up with your group or even win your group. You have no control over a massive group unless you can dictate the pace, which in itself is more rewarding than a sandbagged sub3. Enjoy your race and don’t set yourself up for disappointment if the group isn’t fast enough. Skubarra, Yyyy, DieselnDust and 3 others 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mamil Posted February 12, 2022 Share 1B . I feel a curious mixture of pride, disbelief, knowledge that the system is wonky and outright fear. HdB, Scary Rider and NickGM 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
